Big Meows

While at the safari zoo mentioned in yesterday's blog, we got to get super up close to some large cats. Lions, tigers, and white tigers. And honestly, white tigers are one of my very favorite animals so this was quite a fun experience.




Scrunchy nose!


Tongue tricks?


My what large paws you have...


He either wants to play... or eat...


Snack time.


This guy is the owner of this park, and these cats. He got them to stand up for their snacks to show us just how big they are. The comparison between the cats arm and the guys arm is striking. This guy was not small, and he was quite muscular. That cats arm is BIG. And standing only about 3 feet away makes this cat seem HUGE.




Rawr!


Tiger time... honestly, I was less than 2 feet away from his face. Fought the urge to rub his nose and lose some fingers... :)



Snack time!


"Oh that was tasty!"


BIG.


The lions!


This is Mr. Lazybones.



Rawr.
